Here are a few of the highlights for those who couldn’t join us in person.

Hello community, here we have another set of package updates. Welcome to our new development cycle of Manjaro 25.1.0, code-named ‘Anh-Linh’.We will focus on Plasma 6.5 series and will introduce GNOME 49, maybe Cosmic 1.0 (Beta).

We managed to stabilize ‘Anh-Linh’ enough to release this update to our stable branch. However, users of Plasma and GNOME may lose their X11 session support. Therefore read our Known issues and solutions section before restarting your systems!
